  LOVE’S GIFT by Penelope Marzec   In 1903, Amaranth Beach is burdened by her ethnicity due to the Chinese Exclusion Acts. Abandoned on a beach as a newborn and raised in an orphanage, she is a skilled secretary, but the threat of deportation looms constantly and all employers turn her away… until Mrs. Tildon of Sea Haven, New Jersey, hires her. Soon after Amaranth’s arrival, she discovers that the Tildon family secrets run deep—a reprobate father, a long-lost brother, an obnoxious maid who is never fired for her behavior, and William the son who worries too much about what people will think. When a series of alarming events occur, it’s up to Amaranth and William to unravel the secrets that threaten to destroy the Tildon family.   Can Amaranth heal the family’s divisions with her faith? Or will a greater danger threaten them all.     Amazon:  https://www.amazon.com/Loves-Gift-Penelope-Marzec-ebook/dp/B0D49BZ5P4   Apple:  https://books.apple.com/us...
